Full Moon in Dhaniṣṭhā

The Full Moon is in sidereal and tropical Aquarius, conjoined a retrograde Saturn, opposite the Sun, Venus, and retrograde Mercury in Leo, all of which square Mars, Jupiter, and Uranus in Taurus. This phase brings everything to a critical juncture in the fixed signs and calls for reconciliation while urging progress. Saturn’s retrograde suggests the need to address past issues before moving forward. This phase emphasizes accepting what is (Capricorn) to embrace future possibilities (Aquarius). The Moon is full in Dhaniṣṭhā, a lunar mansion bridging both Capricorn and Aquarius, symbolizing abundance in all aspects of life. Dhaniṣṭhā represents all the elements and alliances we must call on to see our goals through to completion. While this Full Moon is favourable for music, dance, and ceremony (a drum and flute are symbols of Dhaniṣṭhā), Saturn’s influence may bring a sombre tone. It’s time to bid farewell to unfulfilled potential and realise enduring truths.
